Singapore operator Sea Legend is launching a test container service from China to Europe via the Northern Sea Route. The route will connect the ports of Qingdao, Shanghai and Ningbo with European hubs in Felixstowe, Rotterdam, Hamburg and Gdansk. The first vessel will leave Qingdao on September 16 and is scheduled to arrive in Gdansk on October 13 — at the height of the pre-Christmas shipping season.

In the first half of 2025, Luka Koper successfully exploited the opportunities created by the challenging global environment, including the rerouting of shipping lines from Asia and changes in global trade. The Group increased its total seaborne cargo turnover by 1% to 11.4 million tonnes. 

LTG Infra, a company of LTG Group and responsible for the implementation of the Rail Baltica European gauge railway project in Lithuania, has opened its own Rail Baltica design division. The initiative is aimed at solving the shortage of design capacities and ensuring the timely implementation of one of the key infrastructure projects in the Baltic States, as well as further development of the European gauge network.

According to the results of the first half of 2025, the three largest seaports in Poland handled 68.5 million tons of cargo, which is 1% more than a year earlier. The main driver of growth was the Szczecin-Świnoujście port complex, where the transshipment of oil cargo increased by 25% – from 3.8 to 4.7 million tons.

At the end of July, the first container vessel Enforcer docked at the Baltic hub of the Port of Gdansk as part of the new Scandinavia West Coast Express (SWX) service connecting Poland with Denmark, Sweden and Lithuania. The weekly route, which includes the ports of Gothenburg, Aarhus, Klaipeda and Gdansk, is designed to improve the efficiency of shipping and become an environmentally friendly alternative to road transport.
